Oil Pressure Sender: Description and Operation
Switch-Oil Pressure

OPERATION

The oil pressure sensor uses two circuits. They are: 

A signal to the PCM relating to engine oil pressure

A sensor ground through the PCM's sensor return

The oil pressure sensor returns a voltage signal back to the PCM relating to engine oil pressure. This signal is then transferred (bussed) to the instrument
panel on a CCD bus circuit to operate the oil pressure gauge and the check gauges lamp. Ground for the sensor is provided by the PCM through a
low-noise sensor return.
